anyway its true the coy best usu ends up in ocs. but it does not mean all those who din best anyting wont get to go, or all those who bested something will go.
by now ur sgts shud be dropping hints for u all all over liao mah, no?
worrying wont help. njoy ur last wk(s) of ur bmt! -
My POP from BMT was like....
We did a "24km" route march starting 0000hrs til 0600hrs with our field pack (ten packed items). Then we rest awhile til 0700++ where our parents arrive at the in camp stadium. Smoke grenade thrown to form a smoke screen, four persons to a stretcher with two sandbags on top and two person to one ammo box with one sandbag in it. We charge across the length of the field then back to company line, took our beret. Did the parade, parents invited to put the berets on us. Lastly, we threw the beret skywards, our ps and our pc too. -

i mean disrupt PTPOriginally posted by wuming78:har? wat disrupt wat ooc? no repeat of BMT -
orr... aiyah.. no need think so much. if can disrupt good lor. if canot den take it as more time to train and ur bmt easier. frm wat i noe, alot of recruits who disrupt their ptp come back to bmt much less fitter than those who stayed on, esp those who passed ippt during the first ptp test and got disrupted. so perhaps its better to stay on.Originally posted by duotiga83:i mean disrupt PTP no repeat of BMT
